A snowy walk

It’s been a long time since I saw snow like today (not since I left Edmonton probably), so I decided to go for a walk out to get the mail.

Light wind, but fairly heavy snow coming down. The cars had a pretty thick blanket of snow covering them already.

Out on the road, the snow accumulation was pretty thick, and ankle deep in a few spots. Back home this would be a pretty typical snow fall. Around here, it’s bananas and completely mind blowing.

It was a nice walk through the neighbourhood. I’d forgotten how nice and quiet things get during snowfall.

Considering the amount of snow already on the roads, and how much more is expected, I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere tomorrow.
